Israel’s attacks in Lebanon and Gaza are pushing Iran to take “legitimate steps”, Turkiye’s foreign minister has said in a joint press conference in Istanbul with his Iranian counterpart, reports AFP.
“Israel’s aggressive stance is forcing Iran to take legitimate steps,” Turkiye’s Hakan Fidan said alongside Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was “constantly opening new fronts in the region” and “trying to draw Iran into this war”, he said.
“The risk of war spreading to the entire region should not be underestimated,” he warned.
